In this video, Ask This Old House plumbing and heating expert Richard Trethewey and carpenter Nathan Gilbert, team up to help a homeowner retrofit a new dishwasher into an old kitchen with no room for one by adjusting the counter and cabinets.
SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse.
Richard Trethewey and Nathan Gilbert team up to help a homeowner create space for and install a dishwasher. Richard received an email asking for help installing a dishwasher in a 1950s built home. Installing a dishwasher can be a straightforward job but if the kitchen has never had a dishwasher before, cabinet work will need to be done. Richard gets some help from Nathan to tackle the project.
Time: 5-6 hours
Cost: $450 and up

Scrap piece of wood
Branch tailpiece [amzn.to/3hnUdnp]
Standard dishwasher hose [amzn.to/33H1Qxa]
Silicone caulk [amzn.to/33FcDYv]
Steps for Retrofitting a Dishwasher
Step 1: Start by making measurements
Step 2: Remove the countertop
Step 3: Remove the cabinets
Step 4: Connect the dishwasher
Where to find it?
Richard installed a 55 dBA in Stainless Steel Front Control Built-In Dishwasher with Steam Clean [bit.ly/3odr67y] by GE Appliances [www.geappliances.com/]. To connect the dishwasher, Richard used a standard dishwasher hose, a Y tailpiece for the drain, and a push connect shutoff valve, all of which can be found at home centers and plumbing supply houses.
To adjust the cabinets to make room for the dishwasher, Nathan used a variety of tools, including a circular saw and a reciprocating saw, that can be found at most home centers.
To bridge the gap between the formica countertops and the sink, Richard actually re-used an old piece of butcher block [amzn.to/2Rf9YCl] that he salvaged from the Newton Generation NEXT House [www.thisoldhouse.com/newton-g...], but butcher block can also be found at most centers.
Expert assistance with this segment was provided by William C Gilbert Carpentry.

This is definitely a more more "real" example of a home project. Don't get me wrong: I love TOH! But some of the projects are done with a budget and scale much larger than the average home owner might encounter. I myself did this exact project a couple of years ago without much experience and it would have been great to have seen a video like this back then! What a great video!

In general, a nice job. I would've put some plywood or other material on the sides of the cabinets closest to the dishwasher, especially on the sink side to keep items in that cabinet away from the insulation on the dishwasher and stop small items contained. Also, I'm not sure how deep the cabinetry is, but maybe a right-angle plug would be a better choice.

Pretty easy but couple things I would do differently: 1. Install the dang garbage disposal. Powers already there and the cost of a disposal isn’t that much more considering you’re already repiping the sink’s drain. (They make push button switches so you don’t even need to wire to a wall switch). 2. Install a drip pan under the sink. $20 well spent. 3. I’m not sure how easy it is to remove the machine for maintenance and repairs. They glued the wood block into the kitchen.

What happens if/when the dishes needs servicing? The way they did the new countertop, the whole section has to come out with the dishwasher. Also, I would have put side panels on each cabinet (especially the sink base) to help keep out mice, roaches, moisture, etc. All in all, a great job working with what was available; I just wanted to mention those things as considerations.

All outlets within 6 feet of the sink must be GFCI protected but they don't need to be GFCI themselves. You can wire a GFCI outlet to protect all branch circuitry beyond it, so in this case I would assume the outlet under the sink is wired up to the one above the sink and thus granted its GFCI protection. You can also bypass a GFCI outlet using pigtail wires so it's always worth a check using a cheap tester, but the outlet in the video is likely code compliant. Usually you'll see only one GFCI outlet in a kitchen or bathroom but all outlets in said kitchen or bathroom are protected by that GFCI because they were wired through it to the breaker. The breaker itself may also be GFCI which would protect the entire circuit against ground faults. Combination GFCI/AFCI breakers are becoming very common thankfully.

I noticed there was no trap under the sink. I can't believe you guys even left it like that. Did I miss something?

I was thinking the same thing. In theory, the trap might be in the basement.

It’s pretty much standard in the ATOH videos. It’s almost always the wife that’s there and she is almost always attractive.

Richard can't believe, while you were cutting out the PVC drain you didn't add a P- trap and a AAV was there a reason just wondering because code where I live if you mess with the drain at all you have to bring it up to code.

The trap would be in the ceiling of the unfinished basement, seen it done this way on older homes and cottages.
